    Chest freezer hinges

    I have a magic Chef 6.8 that I am building my Keezer out of. I am curious if anyone has found heavy duty hinges to replace the plastic ones? I have searched without success to find any. I have added gas struts to keep the lid up, but there is still a lot of pressure on the plastic ones. I have...

    suggestions needed, Keezer with collar and tower

    I just got a Magic Chef 6.8 for Christmas and want to turn it into a keezer. I want to add a 6 inch collar so that I can add two kegs on the compressor hump. I really like the style keezer with the wooden box "draft tower" on top. I was thinking about running a 3'' PVC pipe out the back of the...

    Searching for galvanized finish beer taps

    I am in the process of building my kegerator. For the outside I am using cut up pallet boards to make a crate looking case. I want to use galvanized finished door pull and hinges. It looks like I am out of luck on matching the beer taps, and only have Stainless or chrome as an option. Are there...

    Box around Mini Fridge

    I have a Magic Chef 4.4 mini fridge used to store my Keg. I am in the process of adding an external tap. For the design I was thinking about something with a wood frame around the outside, resembling a crate, and having something on the top with a wood barrel (mini wine barrel) with a tap on it...

    Beer line through mini fridge freezer

    I am sorry if this is a repeat of previous threads. I have search around and not found this specific question. I just picked up a Magic Chef 4.4cf mini fridge for cheap on Craigslist. It does have the upper freezer compartment. Eventually I will probably move the chill plate to the back, but...

    Liquid Wyeast activated before opening

    I have a package of liquid Wyeast about 5 months old. It has been kept in the fridge the whole time. I just pulled it out to use it and the package seems to have been activated. It is unopened, should this still be good to use? The package says good from 6 months of date on package, which I am...

    Keggermeister kegerator sale

    Came across this on newegg. Although searching the web after posting this, seems the "sale price" is normal on other website, but shipping is free, and seems to include a 2.5lb CO2 tank (empty) and dual gauge regulator...

    When to Bottle

    I am brewing my first 5 gallon batch of extract beer. I did the blonde ale from morebeer.com. The instructions say allow 14 days before bottling (for fermentation and settling). Fermentation stopped about 7. I kept it in the carboy until 10 days then transferred to secondary. Its been in there...

    Fermentation Bubbles in the Airlock

    I started my first two batches of cider last night in 1 gallon jugs. One of the air locks (the s shaped ones) is now full of fermentation residue and the same color of the cider. Should I be concerned about this and take it off to clean it out? Thanks. Phil

    Hi from Placerville, CA

    Hi. My name is Phil. I am getting ready to start home brewing my first beer batch in a few weeks. I did start some hard ciders yesterday, that so far seem to be going good. I was hesitant to start one, but searching for that perfect easy recipe turned out that everyone has their own style to...
